Although I'm 100% okay with Brock playing in the NHL as long as he earns his spot and is put in a position to succeed.

Yeah, there could be a surprise or two, but I haven't seen it so far. Even Hutton should be AHL bound

If he was on a good team, his ass definitely would have been sent to the AHL last year with the start to the season he had.

Hate to say it, but I disagree with your assessment, and I'm sure you will disagree with mine.

No thanks to Rodin, go back to Sweden.
I'd give Guance a chance, not Boucher, Dorset will, in my opinion, be on the team.
JV, Cramaosa?, Dahlen, Goldobin, Boesser, a training camp tryout and promptly send them to the AHL. I would let Boesser have a bit longer, but he needs proper development.
Joulevi should go back to junior if he struggles at camp, why oh why press someone into the NHL on such a terrible team.

I'm not nor ever will be a guy that thinks or wants the developing youth playing in an environment that will set them up for failure. There are no lucky bounces, there are no high end talent prospects that are going to propel the Canucks to the next level.

Let the kids develop in the development league, the team will suck, but play to win, only to lose and continue to draft high and become better through that process.
Again I know you will disagree, but I believe in reality and not what ifs, or lucky bounces.

Hockey post, no hate, no malice, just really disagree and hope most of this suspect talent is in the AHL.

This has zero do with bounces or propelling the Canucks anywhere. The insinuation itself is misleading. The reality is laid out on page 8, 12:30 post, of player choices. If the players are ready ++(+)(+) years from their draft to be NHL rookies then it's just a talent assessment. If you don't think Chaput, Megna, Shore and Biega are NOT suspect talent but believe BB, Goldy & OJ are; then, the Nuck professionals may show you differently by their decisions.

Asset management, alone, would dictate that a poor move as he'd be picked up on waivers.

If the Nucks were willing to field their roster with fringe NHL'ers like the Chaput's, Megma's, or those late in their career like Hainsey then we could leave the young guys to develop in Utica but either Aquilini or JB doesn't think the paying fans will go for it or it. Too bad.

Orange & Green teams belong in the AHL just for some clarity.

The Stars can't score and never will be able to score. They clearly don't have any fire power to make an impact. The Flyers, the tickets to watch their games are way too expensive. A hot dog shouldn't cost so much and don't get me started on what parking costs. Besides, they want to build a new rink and have no idea how to pay for it, asking for public funding.
